DUBAI | SZR Supertalls | >300 M

malec · #1 Posted **Jun 22, 2007, 7:40 PM**

Based on the marina supertalls thread I decided to make this new one so I that can lump some more towers together instead of creating loads of threads. Sure some of these designs are crap but there are some good ones too.

Emirates Park Towers
77F, 395m, Rising, (~35th floor)

Current Design

Hard Rock Hotel
78F, 379m, Under Design, probably never built though

Current Design

Lamtara Towers
70+60F, 360+320m, On Hold

Current Design

Al Attar Tower
76F, 342m, On Hold

Current Design

Previous Proposals

Al Yacoub Tower
72F, 330m, Rising (~55th floor), slow work though

Current Design

HHH Tower
72F, 317m, Almost topped out

Current Design

Very nice. I love the first three, although it looks like they recycled the old Russia Tower design for the LamTara Twin Towers

Al sharq is a very good one, although the rendering might be deceptive.
Too bad it's only proposed.

Forgot to put in Al Yacoub Tower which was a 330m tower designed to resemble Big Ben. It reached the 4th floor and stopped since the developer was forced to redesign.

Also there's a massive project to be built between emirates towers and the trade centre tower. With it comes a tower (right next to SZR) that is to be around 450m tall, but won't start for another few years.

Fabb, "proposed" doesn't mean anything really. It's actually approved, in that there's no problem for the developer to be allowed to build it. It's just that it hasn't started yet and there's no information apart from some models and renders, even though it's been around for a while.

Al Sharq Tower looks very good, I hope they build it!

VA_Gentleman · #10 Posted **Jul 25, 2007, 9:42 PM**

Not too bad, but that green and gold glass building looks like hell! Like the city of Houston, TX took a dump and that building came out.

malec · #11 Posted **Jul 26, 2007, 1:16 AM**

green and gold? Which one is that?

VA_Gentleman · #12 Posted **Jul 26, 2007, 4:20 PM**

^The already built building in a bunch of the pics that looks like it has stacks of coins hanging from it.

the plot and the location

That green and gold tower(Al Attar, I think) is seriously nauseating. Possibly the most hideous thing I've seen in Dubai. I really, really don't get some of this stuff.

On the other hand, Rose Rotana I'm quite fond of... just get rid of the 1000 foot advertisement on the side of it.
